Palestine- PLO official Saeb Erekat taken in ‘serious’ condition after contracting COVID-19

The PLO Negotiations Affairs Department announced that the Secretary-General of the PLO Executive Committee, Saeb Erekat, was moved to a hospital in Israel.

Palestinian officials on Sunday quoted medics as saying Erekat was in “serious… but stable” condition.

“Following his contraction of Covid-19, and due to the chronic health problems he faces in the respiratory system, Dr Erekat’s condition now requires medical attention in a hospital,” it said in a statement.

“His situation is not good,” his brother Saber Erekat told AFP.
